NEXKUT PTK75
Blade Shape: Tanto-style with a modified drop-point profile
Core Philosophy: A "Breacher and Piercer." This tactical knife is designed as a robust, utilitarian tool first. Its philosophy is about brute force, durability, and penetration against hard targets. Think of it as a sharpened pry bar.
Description:
- The blade has a distinct tanto point, characterized by a sharp, angular tip formed by two straight lines meeting at a 90-degree angle.
- It features a flat grind along the edge, which provides excellent edge retention and strength.
- The spine is thick and slightly curved toward the tip, contributing to a robust build ideal for piercing and heavy-duty tasks.
- The upper edge (false edge) is serrated near the handle, offering additional utility for cutting tough materials.
- The overall shape is straighter and more aggressive, emphasizing penetration and durability.
NEXKUT NMD76 Fierce
Blade Shape: Curved, reverse tanto or "spear-point" hybrid with a pronounced belly
Core Philosophy: A "Fighter and Slicer." This knife is designed primarily as a weapon for dynamic combat. Its philosophy is about speed, fluid motion, and creating debilitating cuts. Think of it as a purpose-built combat blade.
Description:
- This blade has a curved, swept-forward design with a reverse tanto-like tip, where the spine curves downward before the tip, creating a more aggressive forward sweep.
- The edge has a deep belly, allowing for efficient slicing and chopping motions.
- The tip is sharp and pointed, but less angular than the first knife, making it better suited for both piercing and slicing.
- The blade includes multiple jimping (textured grooves) on the spine near the handle for improved grip during one-handed use.
- The profile is more ergonomic, with a flowing curve from heel to tip, enhancing control during dynamic movements.
